they are moonwalking on the issue now. they issued apologies and from what I understand they let her go
We can never miss a chance to be the victims...never. Every slight is but another chance to scream "give-us-us-free"
So if a white man calls another man an idiot, that's just an insult But if a white man calls a black man an idiot, that's racist. I think I got it.
Yo. I am simply seeking clarification. Man if we acted as offended for the bull shit we do as a race to ourselves and and have that equal the same level of outcry and righteous indignation as is directed toward folk we know don't like us... ..maybe we wold be as fucked up as we are now.
Its not necessarily outcry but calling shit what it is and racism for black people in this country is a unique thing compared to others because the violence and mistreatment associated with it rightly brings about outrage. I think I get where you're coming from by saying why get so outraged since we're already aware of people seeing us like this but all evil needs to take over is for the best among us to ignore it. The Holocaust started with a few pictures depicting Jews as rats. If you want to dehumanize a people simply depict them as animals and any autrocity done to them isn't seen as a crime.
This is nothing new, nothing shocking. Its a bit silly for us to by our actions, our spech, our music, our culture....degrade ourselves, and then act indignant' when dumb shit like this happens. These idiots talking about read a book, and if a white man said it its racist.....and I especially like the sambo picture..
What music speech and culture are you talking about? The shit young kids do? Why the fuck are we the only group of people competely defined by our youth and the most immature amongst us? That's horseshit. And just because some people act like fools does give an open pass to slandered and treated like shit by racist assholes. You have a degree in an American History from the University of Maryland correct? So you know calling a black person a penny pinching kik would mean something totally different if it was said to a Jew right? Calling an Asian a spear chucker has no weight to it and again once the popular culture starts dehumanizing us (ESPECIALLY SOMEONE AS HIGH PROFILE AS THE PRESIDENT) its a pathway to proganda that will make it seem like its ok to treat us like sub humans. Its always been like this in history. With blacks during slavery and post civil war era and Jews during the holocaust.
